Are residential mortgage pre-payment penalties tax deductible?

I am not 100% certain of the answer, but in most cases we can deduct the interest, but not usually any fees associated with the mortgage. I am assuming you can't deduct it. Consult a tax professional. I have a suggestion for those who are thinking of paying off their mortgage when a prepayment penalty is in place. I used to be in the mortgage business. Suggestion: Prepayment penalties are usually around 5%. So, if you have a balance of $10,000 the prepayment penalty would be $500. There is a very simple answer for avoiding most of the cost of prepayment. In your next payment pay everything but a portion. Leave a balance of $100 or $500. In most cases the prepayment penalty is calculated on the balance. Make your your final payment of $100-$500. This way your penalty will only be a $5-$25 saving you a lot of money. Then the tax issue is really of no consequence.From IRS Publication 936: "Mortgage prepayment penalty.If you pay off your home mortgage early, you may have to pay a penalty. You can deduct that penalty as home mortgage interest provided the penalty is not for a specific service performed or cost incurred in connection with your mortgage loan." I paid a prepayment penalty and my year end interest paid for the loan included the penalty.Hope that helps. Navywings 17:21, 26 May 2008 (UTC)
